Spiritual Counterfeit: ONENESS PENTECOSTALISM DENIES THE BIBLICAL DOCTRINE OF TRINITY

Larry Wessels, director of Christian Answers of Austin, Texas/ Christian Debater (YouTube channel: CANSWERSTV, see our playlist "Dealing with Anti Trinitarians (UPC)" at http://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PL9931642C7C8FFEAB&feature=plcp; websites: http://www.BIBLEQUERY.ORG, http://www.HISTORYCART.COM & http://www.MUSLIMHOPE.COM) has attended Dayspring Fellowship in Austin, Texas (website: http://www.DayspringChapel.org) from1981 to the present & Jackson Boyett has been the pastor there the entire time. Pastor Boyett earned a B.A. degree from the University of Texas at Austin in English & in 1973 had a "call to ministry" from the Lord, thus enrolling in the Austin Presbyterian Seminary where he earned a Master of Divinity degree by 1976.

Oneness theology denies the Trinity and teaches that God is a single person who was "manifested as Father in creation and as the Father of the Son, in the Son for our redemption, and as the Holy Spirit in our regeneration." Another way of looking at it is that God revealed himself as Father in the Old Testament, as the Son in Jesus during Christ's ministry on earth, and now as the Holy Spirit after Christ's ascension.

Oneness theology also maintains that baptism is a necessary part of salvation; that is, in order to be saved, one must be baptized, by immersion. If you are not baptized you cannot be saved. However, not only must baptism be by immersion, it must also be administered with the formula "In Jesus' name".
